Just wanted to see if anyone has experience I can learn from. With ds, I had a difficult pregnancy and was quite restricted through my 2nd and 3rd tris. I still delivered him 5 weeks early - he was fine, but very tiny, and gave us quite a scare showing up so abruptly. This time, I have been very healthy, and have no restrictions, but as I only have the one pregnancy to look back on, I am nervous now. I'm 32 wks, and as I've danced my whole life (other than my last pregnancy) I have continued some ballet through this one. I had ds at 35 wks, though, and now the further I get the more nervous I am about my activity level. Any advice? Thoughts? I know this time is different, but I don't want another preemie if there's something I should do about it.

Well... I walked about 12 miles from the nearest town to our home when I was 37 weeks pregnant. It's a long story... but um... yeah. I was fine and dd was born at 40w 2d so the extra activity definitely didn't start labour or anything. Of course she was my first and I'm 36.5 weeks along now so I definitely don't have any history of preterm labour.

love and peace. :love
